V. The Subsistence of Buddha and Speaking

of the Lord's Power of Deliverance:

the Theories of Buddha and Deliverance.

 

 

According to the law of nature, the good deeds will receive pleasant rewards, and the evil deeds, unpleasant rewards. The substance of soul is where they are all stored. Because of the substance of soul where the karmic obstructions of all evil deeds are stored, human beings must suffer poverty, sickness, misfortune, etc. and after death, must also suffer the cycle of afflictions transmigrating the realm of animals.

The only way to deliver the sentient beings from affliction is to extinguish their karmic obstructions and then lead them to the world of happiness. However, the law of nature is such that unless the appropriate retribution is paid, no karmic obstruction can be extinguished. Nevertheless, Buddha who is completely unified with the law of nature has the power of deliverance to extinguish the karmic obstruction.

 

 

1. Buddha Who Subsists as Buddha-body

In the Ultimate Reality of Selflessness.

 

The World-honored One and all the Buddhas who attained the Buddhahood abide as such in the ultimate reality of selflessness. This is the lion's roar of the new Buddhism of the Yeongsan Buddhism toward the world. As Buddha's wisdom and compassion are completely with the noumenon of the universe, the Lord always leaves the majesty's Buddha-body in the ultimate reality, and the subsistence of Buddha means the subsistence of this Buddha-body.

The World-honored Buddha, who was the first to attain the Buddhahood, and all the other Buddhas subsist as the triple Buddha, Dharmakaya, Sambhogakaya, and Nirmanakaya. Dharmakaya, or the Dharma-body is the transcendental universal Buddha-essence unified with the absolute reality of the universe with the light of cosmic wisdom.

Sambhogakaya, or the body of the manifestation of the universal Buddha-essence in symbolic form is the Buddha who posses thirty-two auspicious signs of excellence and the eighty distinctive bodily marks who delivers the sentient beings with immeasurable light. Nirmanakaya, or the body of transformation is the Buddha Sambhogakaya has created to save all sentient beings.

Here the subsistence of Buddha means the subsistence of Sambhogakaya who is the main Buddha of all Buddhas. What "there is the Buddha-body" means is the proof of the subsistence of Buddha, the proof that the Buddha is completely unified with the universe, and also the proof that the Buddha has the power to extinguish the karmic obstructions of the sentient beings. It is because of Buddha that we can say that Buddhism is the religion of the deliverance of the sentient beings.

 

 

2. Buddha is the Only True Savior of the World,

and Buddhism Is the Only True Religion of Deliverance.

 

 

As Buddha is completely unified with the emptiness, which is, in fact, the noumenon of the universe, the Lord can make use of the immeasurable materials as well as information of emptiness without obstruction. That is how the Buddha is self composed and so omniscient as well as omnipotent without any impossibility. Buddha's cosmic power comes from the hundreds of million strains of immeasurable light which compose the Buddha-body.

It is known that each of the hundreds of million strains of immeasurable light has a special capability. If so, how could we imagine the infinite power of the hundreds of million strains of immeasurable light? It surely must be infinite. Buddha is capable of the fire samadhi, or self-cremation in the fire of deep meditation that could subjugate the Outside Ways.

Buddha is also capable of extinguishing the obstinate karmic obstructions of the sentient beings and then deliver them from the three evil ways. Buddha is also capable of raising Buddhas. Buddha is also capable of searching out the dead spirits hiding under the ground, under the deep water, or in the great empty space. Buddha also has a great power which can fling out even the heavenly body.

That is the reason how Buddha could save the human beings. The karmic obstructions, especially the grave karmic obstructions could only be extinguished by the power of Buddha.

No supreme leader of any religion, or no superman of the Outside Ways could extinguish the karmic obstructions, because they are not at the stage of Trikaya, or the triple body of the Buddha.

They are only able to cleans the light karmic obstructions, the people say. Therefore, Buddha the Dharma King of the universe, is the only true savior of humanity and the world.

I wish to let you all know that if anyone, no matter what kind of grave sin he has committed, who takes refuge in Buddha and performs the roots of virtue could be saved. We all must know the true concept of savior and plant it in the world to save the mankind. This is the reason why we can say that Buddhism is the only religion that can save the mankind.

 

 

3. The Rare and Truly Mysterious Is the Nucleus of Cosmic

Deliverance: the Immaculate Dharmakaya

 

The chief idea that runs through the Vulture Peak Buddhism is the realization of the deliverance of the sentient beings, protection and unification of our country. Korea is the only divided country in the world, and it must be unified and live happily. The world must also be peaceful without war.

This is the Buddhist theory of peace, and there is a chief constituent that sustains the new concept for the protection and peace of the country along with the deliverance of the poor sentient beings. Wat that will be? It is Vairochana Buddha, the Buddha of cosmic energy and immaculate dharmakaya (淸淨法身), who is the main constituent of all the Buddhas in the infinitely great manifold cosmos of the Dharmadhatu.

Vairochana Buddha is the Dharma-body who is originally not a personified entity. However, if all the blissful bodies of Sambhogakaya enter into Vairochana Buddha, they become a personified cosmic light of wisdom and be able to perform the unimaginable combined powers of the World-honored One and all the other Buddhas.

We could say that Vairochana Buddha is a kind of the Heavenly God or the Lord who created the universe. He is the singular and mysterious cosmic nucleus of the deliverance and the pride of Buddhism. This is the reason why we are able to say that Buddhism is the only religion of the true deliverance of human kind.

In fact, Vairochana Buddha manifests regularly at Hyeonjisa Temple of the Vulture Peak Buddhism to perform the work of the peaceful unification and prosperity of our country as well as the peace of the world. All the people of the world must know this fact and be grateful to the Buddha.
